for working capital do you recommend a lump sum personal loan or a line of credit?

my operating expenses are estimated at 5k a month.

all input is appreciated.

I would say, check out interest rates (rates and how they are calculated) on two loans and see which one would be cheaper if you used full amount. Unless I am missing something here, there is no real advantage from one to the other. Usually line of credits are like credit cards the way the interest is calculated, could cost way more if you don't pay it off quickly. If you are smart enough to keep personal and business separate you could look into a home equity loan-then you could write off the interest and get a pretty good rate to boot, but be aware rates are on the rise. Have you looked into an investor?

if you work unrelentingly hard, then failure is not an option.
